UNCA Botanical Gardens

Olympus Evolt 300, 14-45 lens, 1/15 @ f8. The Asheville CNPA group used to hold our meetings at the UNCA Botanical Gardens. I went early to a meeting to walk around and check it out. This is what I found. Eleanor

I like this image alot with its different lines etc. Is there a way to take any of the glare off the water in the foreground - if thats a desireble thing to do?

I have never heard of it. I bet it is a beautiful place. I think some more colors (besides the greens and browns) would have made the photo more interesting. It still looks like a place I might want to visit.

The glare doesn't show up as much in a print so it doesn't seem distracting. Perhaps I should have said the University of North Carolina at Asheville instead of UNCA. It's a pretty large campus. The botanical gardens have lots of wild flowers and plants indiginous to this area. Eleanor

Nice job Eleanor, I've been there several times but haven't had the vision to take this shot, until now!:)

Cool shot. I like it as is, but a shot with more even lighting in similar conditions might be better? Thanks for sharing!
